Chapter 975: Young Man, Don’t Talk Nonsense If You Don’t Understand

Teacher Chen fell silent.

He felt that Tan Jinyi was implying something about him.

But soon after, the teacher of these students also came forward, and said encouragingly to the boy, “That’s right. You have just entered the school not long ago, so you have a lot to learn. It’s a good thing to express your own opinions and ask questions. You don’t have to pay attention to those who mock you because of this. Such people should feel ashamed.”

“Furthermore, there is no end to learning. Even if you continue to pursue related occupations in the future and have many years of experience, it is still possible for you to encounter problems,” the teacher said, “No matter when it happens, as long as you don’t understand something, it’s good to get close to the problem, learn more about it, and search for the answer.”

“What’s wrong is not those who seek knowledge, but those who laugh at those who seek knowledge,” the teacher said in a low voice.

Teacher Chen was flabbergasted.

If Tan Jinyi’s words earlier were lightly insinuating something.

Then this teacher was making her meaning very obvious.

The faces of teacher Chen and the other four darkened.

One should not go overboard with one’s words!

However, Tan Jinyi and the teacher ignored them.

Who would care about their feelings.

The boy mustered up his courage and said, “The color beside the waterfall seems to have a faint blue color, but I’m worried that I’ve been staring at the painting for too long and my eyes are blurry.”

“Moreover, the blue color of the waterfall and the blue color of the blank space seem to be white,” the boy said.

Tan Jinyi smiled and said, “You didn’t see it wrongly, and there are no fireworks. The blank space does indeed have colors.”

“Actually, the entire painting has colors. Including the empty space. None of them are purely white,” Tan Jinyi explained.

“However, some of the colors are very faint. They are so faint that they are infinitely close to white. In addition, they are lined by the surrounding colors, making the color appear even fainter, as if it was white.”

“Look over here. There is an extremely faint blue color used here, and between the waterfall and this blue, a blue color is swept across this area.”

“And the ground. It looks green, but there’s also the color of sand in the middle. Now look slightly above that, there’s also faint yellow sand in the air. From left to right, it turns from faint to dark and then back to faint.”

“Is this the color of faint yellow sand that the wind blows across the ground?” The boy had earlier received encouragement, and now had the confidence and courage to speak his mind.

“That’s right.” Tan Jinyi nodded with a smile.

“Who said the wind has no color?” Tan Jinyi said with a smile, “Actually, it has many colors.”

“There are many other things like that. You can go back and study them slowly,” Tan Jinyi said.

“But, how do I know if I’m right?” The boy scratched his head.

“You might as well send a private message to Tan Jinyi on Weibo and ask him. I think he will be happy to discuss with you questions related to this,” Tan Jinyi mentioned discussing rather than answering those queries.

It was obvious that he placed himself on the same level as the boy.

The surrounding people also started to discuss amongst themselves.

“So there are so many details in this.”

“I knew it. We’re not professionals. We can only tell if it’s good or not. We can’t tell anything more specific.”

“So wind can also be expressed in colors. That’s great. Tan Jinyi is so creative.”

“I really want a professional who can explain every detail of this painting. I think there are more details that we haven’t discovered yet. These are all Tan Jinyi’s ingenuity and skills.”

“Professional? Aren’t there five of us present,” someone teased. “They’re members of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, have held art exhibitions, and have published books. They have rich experience and skills, and are of high artistic standards. Everyone here is trash in their eyes.”

“With these five experts around, if there’s anything you don’t understand, just ask them directly.”

“Come on, them? Do you mean teacher Chen? Or teacher Lin?”

“I remember that it’s teacher Chen.”

“Then just take it as teacher Chen.” Someone mocked, “I can only see that Tan Jinyi is using reference objects to express the wind, but I can’t see the colors of the wind. Moreover, he directly said that the wind can’t be drawn.”

“But, Tan Jinyi drew it.”

“This is a problem of standards.”

“Let them explain? There were so many details that even they couldn’t see. They even said that Tan Jinyi’s drawing was so-so. Maybe some of the details were intentionally crafted this way by Tan Jinyi, but they couldn’t understand it. On the contrary, they even said that Tan Jinyi’s drawing wasn’t good.”

“That’s true,” someone laughed. “If you’re not good enough, then don’t comment on the works of people who are better than you.”

“As an outsider, I don’t know if Tan Jinyi is qualified to be called a Master, but after listening to the explanation, I feel that Tan Jinyi is definitely of a higher standard than them.”

“Yeah, that’s why Tan Jinyi can draw it, but they can’t see it.”

These discussions were intentionally directed toward the five people.

So those speaking deliberately spoke loudly.

So that the five people could hear it clearly.

The five people’s expressions were extremely ugly.

These people, did they know what level they were at?

To think they could openly ridiculed them like this!

Who said that they were inferior to Tan Jinyi!

These people hadn’t seen their works before!

“But who is this young man? His level is quite high!”

The five artists from the Calligraphy and Painting Association were unable to tell.

But this young man could tell.

Tan Jinyi was wearing a hat.

But his face could still be seen. He was still very young.

That teacher Lin glowered at Tan Jinyi, “Young man, don’t talk nonsense if you don’t know anything. You’re misleading the youth.”

“Could it be that you’re Tan Jinyi himself? You even know how he drew the wind? And know how these colors are drawn? Perhaps, these are just your over-interpretation.” The man in the black coat chimed in.

“That’s right! There are still many examples of over-interpretation. Let’s not talk about other things. Just look at those famous writers’ essays in the Chinese textbook. Even when asking the author himself, he didn’t think of expressing those meanings. Instead, they were interpreted with complicated meanings.”

The boy and his teacher looked at Tan Jinyi with eager eyes.

They didn’t think that Tan Jinyi was over-interpreting.

They only hoped that Tan Jinyi could provide a reason good enough to shut these five people up.

“Because he is Tan Jinyi. This painting was painted by him. How could he not know?” Tan Mo took the initiative to say.

Tan Mo felt that if Tan Jinyi said it himself, the effect wouldn’t be as good.

It was a bit like someone boasting about their own strengths.

At this time, it was better if someone else came out to say this.

She was the best at this kind of thing!

“You said that the artist himself has over-interpreted his own painting?” Tan Mo sneered mercilessly. “You’re not up to par. You can’t see it, hence you’re looking for excuses.”
